An opportunity to support Ukraine…

The UCC is working with relief agencies through the Reformed Church in Hungary to “provide shelter, food, and other care to war refugees and internally displaced people” as well as “refugees and asylum seekers from African, Middle Eastern, and other countries who had sought refuge in Ukraine and now are twice displaced…”

One Faith Church family has anonymously donated $1,000 in addition to their regular tithes and offerings to Faith Church to donate toward these efforts. They invite other Faith families to do the same. By Wednesday, March 16th, all monies collected through Faith Church will be sent to the UCC to add our efforts to those of our Global Partners seeking to care for those facing unimaginable horrors.  

To give in addition to your regular tithes and offerings, please designate in the memo or message (on-line giving) area that you want your extra gift to go to support the people of Ukraine.  May God bless us as we seek solutions to this tragedy, and the tragedy of all armed conflict in our world.

Support Faith and Philip in 100-mile Run

New member, Philip Graves, is an ultra-marathoner and has graciously offered to host a pledge-drive for Faith Church during his next long-distance effort—a 100-mile run in February. 

As a warm-up, he’ll be doing a 24-hour run in December.  We will be selecting one of these events as a fundraiser for Faith Church with folks invited to pledge X amount of dollars per hour (for the December run) or mile (for the February run) with all proceeds going directly to help make up the current budget shortfall of Faith Church.  

Be watching your email, worship announcements, and social media for your chance to chip in and help raise this barn, together once the Pledge Drive begins and please thank Philip for his generosity and keep him in your prayers as he prepares and trains.

Help Support Riverside Pride!!

We want to continue our support of and outreach to LGBTQ+ persons in New Braunfels.  The Third Annual New Braunfels Pride festival will be Saturday, June 26th, 2021 in Landa Park.  Sponsors are needed to help us have a presence there.

Riverside Pride is a 501c3 non-profit and NB Pride is a family friendly event that celebrates our LGBTQ+ friends, family, neighbors, and coworkers. It is about making sure that everyone in our community has the opportunity for health and happiness and to express themselves without fear and discrimination. 

To help provide a sponsorship to represent Faith Church or to volunteer to help work the booth that day, please contact Pastor Carla [email protected]
